ABS FIESTA REDUX

[Deoxys And One Noob]

Justin walks into the rec room for the first time, inspecting the room.

He overhears someone saying "...get millions killed" as he walks in.

"What? Millions killed? What do you mean?" he says.

[Mr. Hurricane]

"It's been four months, with four detonations to date since the fall of the Huitzitlaotani Empire. As we speak Coryza and Aurussica are being showered in radioisotopes. We're not watching a war, we're watching a global catastrophe. The Delta has fractured into rouge nuclear micro-states. Need I say more?"

[Qwepir]

: Er... Ma'am? Ma'am? The Emperor's dead.
: [What?]

Coaxoch immediately drops her foosball game and practically runs over to the TV, watching the footage on display of the Huitzitlaotani capital city being shelled with the same defeated expression she's had since arriving.

[Mr. Hurricane]

Jaakko is disturbed by Coaxoch's presence. He turns his attention to the dogs.

If only Ralph could see
Elijah takes a deep breath.

"I just got in."

"Are we getting out now?"

[CypherX]

Gus overhears the news from a shocked serviceman informing others in the gym. He heads to the rec room, still in gym clothes, to watch the broadcast himself.

[Gojira]

Yui takes a break from painting kill markings on her plane, puts the paint and stencils away, and heads to the rec room.

[Tayasaurus]

Tippy appears into rec eating a bag of cheddar dorits and freezes in front of the tv

"Whoa, stuff. This doesn't boad well."

Tippy looks at Coaxoch feeling guilty for no apparent reason.

"...I uh. I'm sorry things have gone down hill this way..."

[Badger]

Walt sits outside the hanger eating a sandwich for lunch on a small folding chair in the sun, unaware of the news.

She acknowledges you with a nod, her eyes still fixed on the TV.
: ...Some would say we deserve this.

Walt sits outside the hanger eating a sandwich for lunch on a small folding chair in the sun, unaware of the news.

The other two squadrons appear to be returning from their engagement, a few of the planes touching down on the runway. Eremit makes a particularly wobbly and poorly-angled landing that must have damaged the front landing gear strut with how hard the plane came down on it. He comes to a stop on the taxiway in front of the hangar adjacent to yours and climbs out of the plane, dropping to his knees and looking like hes about to throw up.

[Badger]

Walt finishes up his light meal and heads over after a tiny bit watching out for any other planes landing

"So? Who's the best of the bunch? "

Walt sees Eremit hunched down and tones down

"...The kinths have quite some agile aircraft."

The rest of the planes are coming down with military precision, one after the other.

"So? Who's the best of the bunch? "
Walt sees Eremit hunched down and tones down
"...The kinths have quite some agile aircraft."

Eremit just stares through you, eyes darting about randomly. His breathing is shallow and uneven, interspersed with sudden fits of coughing. More than once, he clutches his breathing mask, as if to make sure it's still there.

[Badger]

Walt steps back to give him some more room.

"Did you have to deal with the burst missiles on that ungodly wryvern or something? You look shaken."

[CypherX]

Gus stares, wordless, at the TV for some time before addressing the Deltan squad.

"I'm so sorry."

A wave of sadness washes over him despite the circumstances of his time there.
